4. Work to achieve a fairer society:

High quality and fair distribution. A relevant education, relevant and equal in objectives for all, but where more effort and resources are dedicated to those who, by origin, culture, mother tongue or skills, need it most.
Recognition and identity. An education that promotes the recognition, respect and appreciation of the individual, social and cultural differences of the students.
Full Participation An education that encourages and ensures the participation of everyone in an environment of freedom and positive coexistence.
That denounces unjust situations and fight to change them.
I mean, it's a School for Social Justice

For a school to be of quality, it must be inclusive, effective, innovative, but above all it must work from and for social justice.
